Renegade was formed in November, 2011 by Lead Guitarist Maiken Melina Larsen. She put some ads up on the internet about her, really wanting to get an all-girl rock band formed. Rythm guitarist Lisa Larsen replied on the ad and wrote that she would love to have a band and was very interested in taking part in the band. The members of the still untitled band at that time, was Maiken Melina Larsen and Lisa Larsen.

They both started in High School in August 2011. Lisa found a bassist, Renegade's former bassist, Cecilie Kyed Reese Andersen. Maiken and Anne Amby Nørgaard (vocals) go to class together and after a short amount of time spending time with Anne, Maiken asked Anne if she wanted to be the leadsinger of the band and Anne said yes. A while after that Maiken got the drummer David Jonathan Taylor into the band as well. Renegade got a gig at a local venue called "Rockstjernen" even before they knew if they could play together. The band played a great gig and the monday after the gig, Renegade was in the local paper. The journalist contacted the band and asked for an interview with them. Later on, Renegade was on the front of the paper and got a 3 pages long article about them only. Renegade has been playing together since the band was formed in 2011 and the huge amount of gigs are very rare at an upcoming band. Different competitions, where in 2 of them they made it to the finals. The band has been playing at 2 festivals. One in Denmark and one in Germany. Renegade had, after only 2 months, 10 songs done. It only went up for Renegade from here. Recently, the band announced that their former bassist Cecilie Kyed Reese Andersen was leaving Renegade due to different priorities. The band is now looking for a new bassist and keeps on going.

WHAT MADE YOU GRAP THE GUITAR, MICROPHONE, BASS OR DRUMSTICKS?I had been playing drums for a long time, but sort of lost the interest. I've always loved sounds even if it was just sounds from the kitchen or something. So one day i heard this song called Pressure as made famous by Paramore. It just hit me, the notes in the song, the sound of it and so on.. That's when i decided to grap the electric guitar and I now know that I'll never lose interest for the guitar! I have been playing for about 3 years and 4 months now! I'm stoked!

WHAT'S A FUN FACT ABOUT YOU?:

I like to not be like everybody else and stand out. I love the idea of working out .. But never do it .. haha xD
